After Action Report

The Bucks survived the Hawks 104-99. The Bucks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bucks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bucks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
